LAZY

The title needed to be in caps because you do not even understand how lazy DH's family is - they will not help me whatsoever.  There is 5 children - yes 5 children and yet me as the Daughter in Law is doing everything. 

I got their house put on the market - I found them an apartment - I set up a new bank account - I got all the bills transferred over to me - I correctly all their late fees by calling each company - I lowered their insurance by calling their company.  I got their cars inspected and insured.  I filed for COSA for DH's father - I set up power of attorneys for them.  I went shopping and got them all new things for their apartment - including a new couch.  I am getting the old house painted and winterized to sell.  I made a budget for them with their funds in order to pay down their debt - I took over the bills so they are paid properly.  My husband and I put our names on the new apartment lease - the Peco and Comcast bill because they have such bad credit.  You name it I have done it and I am exhausted.

They move on November 2nd.  I took off of work on November 1st - I will get the keys to the new place - clean it - set everything up and food shop for them - have the cable - phone and internet hooked up- so on the 2nd all they will have to do is move in.  Once they move out of the house - I will have the house gutted, cleaned, painted and winterized - I hope to have this all done by November 15th.

Like I said I have basically done all of this on my own - the other Daughter in Law has helped - and the one daughter that is living there has cleaned out some things from the house - but other than that it has been all me.  On top of everything - most of the kids are giving me a hard time because they are losing their childhood home - or a list of other excuses why they cannot help - which makes my job harder trying to get everything done - the funny thing is this is all good for DH"s parents - but it seems scarifying for the children - they are just so selfish.

I already did all of this stuff once with my parents and now I have to do it again with DH's parents.  I just need it to be done already.  I have to say DH's parents are so very happy though that I am helping them and getting them out of a home that should be condemned and into a nice safe place to live and getting their bills back under control.

So this post is not a total loss - here is some cute pictures of my bug.  He always makes my day brighter.
